IO Type
Description
A
0
–A
14
Input
Address Inputs.
Used to select one of the 32,768 bytes of the nvSRAM.
DQ
0
-DQ
7
Input or Output
Bidirectional Data IO Lines
. Used as input or output lines depending on operation.
WE
W
Input
Write Enable Input, Active LOW
. When the chip is enabled and WE is LOW, data on the IO
pins is written to the specific address location.
CE
E
Input
Chip Enable Input, Active LOW
. When LOW, selects the chip. When HIGH, deselects the chip.
OE
G
Input
Output Enable, Active LOW
. The active LOW OE input enables the data output buffers during
read cycles. Deasserting OE HIGH causes the IO pins to tri-state.
V
SS
Ground
Ground for the Device
.
The device is connected to ground of the system.
V
CC
Power Supply
Power Supply Inputs to the Device
.
HSB
Input or Output
Hardware Store Busy (HSB)
. When LOW, this output indicates a Hardware Store is in progress.
When pulled low external to the chip, it initiates a nonvolatile STORE operation. A weak internal
pull up resistor keeps this pin high if not connected (connection optional).
V
CAP
Power Supply
AutoStore
Capacitor
. Supplies power to nvSRAM during power loss to store data from SRAM
to nonvolatile elements.
